My mistake-now what?

Looking for suggestions on how to minimize a bad decision. During a Christmas trip to Florida I allowed several of those sticky hooks to be placed on the tt exterior in order to hang Christmas lights. I removed them all without issue...almost. One of them removed a portion of the exterior, below the awning, near the speaker. I am wondering what my next move is to stop this spot from potentially growing? Any suggestions?

Did it remove paint or Filon surface? There is a fiberglass repair kit sold by most boat dealers.

It looks like it removed the first layer of of the rubbery surface. I'm not sure if this is paint or not. Underneath it seems to be the same color / texture as the beige colored exterior next to this white section. So I'm unclear if the white area is paint, decal, or what. Thanks

My guess is you peeled off some of the decal

From the image, it looks like part of the decal to me as well.

Put a sticker over it! I did that with a dent on my aluminum siding.

Thanks guys. Might just seal the edges with thin layer of super glue or caulk or some other adhesive and look for a good looking sticker!

You should purchase a JOF sticker to put in it's place...just saying!

Find a sign shop who makes vinyl decals and buy a small piece of white vinyl.

From personal experience, I can say your "bad decision" is nothing to worry about, considering the range of "bad decisions" that are possible in connection with owning an RV.

That's just part of the vynal decal. A piece of white electrical tape might just blend in nicely. It's up high and most likely up high and out of primary view of site.

Try one of the bullet hole stickers. Looks real, covers the spot and you can tell stories of how you narrowly escaped.
